Step-by-step Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350F(189C). Spray a mini muffin pan with olive oil or just oil it with a brush.

Mix together the egg, cheese, milk, salt, and pepper in a medium-sized bowl. Using a whisk will help incorporate everything and create fluffy bites.

A whisk generates air bubbles in the egg mixture. These bubbles help create that desired light and fluffy texture.

Heat up a non-stick pan on medium-high heat and add the oil, onions, and ham. Cook the onions for 5-7 minutes or until they become translucent.

Let this mixture cool for a few moments. Allowing it to cool is important.

When the mixture is cool, it will blend better with the eggs. Adding the hot mixture will cause the eggs to scramble.
